Many soft computational methods have been introduced to assess the failure rates of pipelines since decades. However, the majority of studies were limited to specific conditions. The aim of this paper is to predict the remaining useful life of the crude oil pipeline by generating the deteriorating curves. The historical inspection data have been used to calculate the metal loss (ML) growth rates. ML anomalies were found to be a major effect on the deterioration rate of a crude oil pipeline. Deterioration curves were developed using ML growth rates on a timely basis. The results may help pipeline technicians in decision making for overhaul planning and to take essential arrangements or to repair when needed, so that produce losses of oil and gas industries can be reduced and hence the lifespan of a pipeline can be increased. © 2019 American Institute of Chemical Engineers date: 2020 publisher: John Wiley and Sons Inc. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85075731210&doi=10.1002%2fprs.12112&partnerID=40&md5=e3e1aa6f0215c982db31e8e7a7234358 id_number: 10.1002/prs.12112 full_text_status: none publication: Process Safety Progress volume: 39 number: S1 refereed: TRUE issn: 10668527 citation: Shaik, N.B. and Pedapati, S.R. and Abd Dzubir, F.A.
